Museums Victoria / Education / Outreach and incursions / Kindergarten outreach

Our travelling 'museum in a van' and learning kits bring rich learning experiences to 4-year-old kindergarten groups all over metropolitan Melbourne and regional Victoria.

As a cultural organisation, we are the largest provider of educational kindergarten incursions in Victoria, delivering face-to-face programs to over 25,000 children in more than 500 Victorian kindergartens each year.

Museum in a van incursions to regional Victorian kindergartens are generously supported by the Besen Family Foundation.
